Love Locks – Les cadenas d’Amour…

Although it stirred controversy over the past few months, Les Cadenas D’Amour du Pont des Arts et du Pont de L’Archeveché (pictured above) are a must-see if you plan a romantic trip to Paris.
If you feel drawn to follow the trend, get a padlock, put your initials on it, find a space for your “cadenas d’Amour” and let it be forever…

Each time I walk on these bridges I do marvel at all this evidence of love, et oui! I also like the fact that people took possession of this bridge to make it special. It is for me a masterpiece, a collective work of art!

I thought this Love Lock Tradition was unique in the world (how pretentious of me, little French lady!) so to repair my mistake I have put together for you a selection of Love Lock Places in different areas of the world…And Apparently this trend is spreading!

Which one is your favourite? Mine has to be the one in the Yellow Mountains of China…How grandiose!
